Europas bedste arbejdspladser.

July 3, 2006By Mike Hohnen

Europas bedste arbejdspladser.

Financial Times bragte fornylig et till�g om Europas bedste arbejdspladser. Det er interessant for alle der �nsker at bek�mpe bureaukrati – ikke mindst danske virksomheder. Selvom Danmark kun udg�r et par procent af Europa, er der hele 6 danske virksomheder der f�r s�rlig omtale i Financial Times (ud af ca. 25 ialt):

Middelfart Sparekasse kommer ind p� en samlet syvendeplads i Europa. Ikke m�rkeligt hvis man kender sparekassen. Her st�r mening over profit, her er klare v�rdier og her er medarbejdere og ledelse partnere og ikke modparter.

Novo Nordisk og Novozymes er blandt de bedste i bioteknologi og farmaka gruppen.

Irma er bedst til intern kommunikation. Her ved medarbejderne hvad der foreg�r og direkt�ren, Alfred Josefsen, er en mester i kommunikation.

Unimerco har v�ret blandt de bedste arbejdspladser i Europa i alle fire �r, hvor analysen er lavet. Ikke s� s�rt: Medarbejderne ejer virksomheden og alle tager fat n�r der er behov for det. Arbejdspladsen er en “landsby under tag” med maskiner og administrative medarbejdere ind imellem hinanden.

Boehringer Ingelheim (farmaka) er ogs� i eliten p� flere punkter.

Det er ogs� interessant hvad der synes at g�re arbejdspladserne bedre: At arbejdet har mening, at medarbejderne bliver respekteret og inddrages i beslutninger og forandringer, at arbejdspladsen er inspirerende og at ledelsen er synlig og trov�rdig.

Financial Times argumenterer ogs� for at de gode arbejdspladser skaber mere v�rdi: Hvis man i 2001 havde investeret 100� i de 23 b�rsnoterede virksomheder der dengang stod p� listen over de 100 bedste arbejdspladser, ville investeringen v�re vokset til 166�.

Havde man i stedet investeret pengene i et gennemsnit af andre b�rsnoterede virksomheder ville bel�bet kun v�re 125� (FTSE indekset).

Letting customers skip the line

April 13, 2022By Mike Hohnen

Giving them priority access, Mobo lets customers order from restaurants and pay for meals using sms.

How it works? Customers create an account, which includes their credit card details. After signing up for the service, they can order online via www.gomobo.com, or by text message/sms. The order appears on the restaurant’s in-store Mobo system, and is automatically billed to the customer’s credit card. The restaurant confirms the order, and the customer receives a text message stating when the order will be ready for pick up.

Every Mobo restaurant has a separate Mobo Pick Up counter, so when their order is ready, Mobo users can walk straight to the counter, state their name and last four digits of their phone number, and pick up their food. For those customers that can’t leave the office, Mobo also delivers.

Since complicated orders (medium rare, hold the mayo) are cumbersome to order by text message, users can store their favourites in their online account, simplifying the procedure to just texting a corresponding number to Mobo.

Dining insperiences, Parisian style

April 13, 2022By Mike Hohnen

French Kit a bien manger is doing for Paris what Leaping Salmon did so well for London until they sadly disappeared: delivering semi-ready meals to busy urbanites, who want to dine well, but don’t care for the shopping and chopping.

Deliveries include all the ingredients for a stylish dinner, and cooking instructions. Part-time gourmands put it all together and get the satisfaction of having prepared their own fresh starters, entrees, and desserts.

Prices charged rival those at top-end restaurants, and reflect the fact that Kit a bien manger is sourcing its ingredients from exclusive purveyors, going after moneyed professionals looking for a proper insperience. Needless to say, customers can choose from a wide range of wines to accompany their meals (which is, as every food expert knows, where you make the real margins).

Family dinners

April 13, 2022By Mike Hohnen

Dinner assembly companies offer essentially the same service: customers schedule a session online, picking meals from a monthly menu. The store, a large commercial-grade kitchen, organizes freshly chopped and prepared ingredients in practical stations. Customers move around the store, assembling a meal at each station by scooping ingredients into freezer bags or disposable baking pans. Meals are easily customized to accommodate personal tastes or diets – the customer just adds more or less fresh garlic or ginger, or substitutes pork for beef. Finally, the packaged meals are clearly labeled with cooking instructions.

The whole process takes about 2 hours, preparing 12 six-serving, or 24 three-serving meals at a cost of around USD 3 per serving. And no time spent shopping for food, planning meals, prepping beforehand and cleaning up afterwards.
